Chapter 248: Brilliant Life, Nothing Can Replace It 23
"I reject."
"No, I haven't said anything yet." Yun Shen paused while adding sugar to his coffee. He looked at the cold woman opposite him with an incredible expression.
"Since it's not a work-related matter, it must be a personal matter. And what else could your personal matter be other than emotional matters?" Leng Nuan said indifferently.
"Hehe, you still understand me." Yun Shen added another sugar cube into the coffee cup, and then started to talk about the whole story.
"You know, my family arranged a fiancée for me when I was a kid. Her family came back from abroad. My old man wanted me to get in touch with them more."
"Wait, don't you have a girlfriend? Did you break up?"
Even though the sky outside was already pitch black, it was actually only 8 o'clock in the evening. Thinking that she was free anyway, Leng Nuan decided to listen to the other person's story first. Because she found that when the characters in this world took the initiative to tell stories, her system script would actively add to it to improve this world.
"No points." Speaking of this, Yun Shen sighed helplessly.
"Then why are you looking for me? Isn't the real owner here?"
"You know what my family situation is like. I'm worried that my fierce fiancée will do something to my girlfriend..."
"Oh, you're worried about her safety, so you want me to make up the numbers?!" Listen, listen, is this guy talking human language?
"Hey, Leng Nuan, please help me. With your level, how many people can hurt you? I'm at my wits' end. I'm also trying hard to cancel the engagement with the Xue family. But I really need some time." Yun Shen leaned forward and blinked his big brown eyes. His expression was like a big golden retriever begging, which made people feel soft-hearted.
"Stop acting cute, I don't fall for it." Unfortunately, the woman in front of him was completely unmoved.
"I don't care. We promised to repay you for saving my life. How can you deceive my feelings like this?" Yun Shen said relentlessly.
"That's true." Leng Nuan nodded in agreement. But, aren't you the one who wants the spring to flow?
"Besides, I have a family now..."
"Ah?" Yun Shen opened his eyes wide, his face full of surprise.
"Sorry, that slipped up. I meant that I have a family now."
"..."
"..."
This sounds a bit weird no matter how you say it. "Ahem, anyway, I can't just take care of myself, I have to take care of them. Sorry, I can't help you with this."
Leng Nuan decided not to bother with the other party any more. In line with the principle of not wasting, she finished the coffee in front of her in two or three gulps. She stood up and thanked him: "Thank you for the coffee, I'm going back now."
When she walked past two or three rows of tables, she heard the man she had just rejected shouting affectionately, "Honey, don't go!"
"..."
"Oh, my dear, how can I live without you~" Yun Shen strode forward, holding her arm, tears in his eyes.
"Give me some more time, two months, no, one month, just one month. I will definitely be able to break off the engagement with my family. So, please don't abandon me."
"What a handsome young man. He seems sincere. Little girl, why don't you give him some time?" An elderly couple in the restaurant couldn't help but plead for the love-struck young man.
"Yes, yes, it's only a month's time, it won't waste time." The other onlookers saw someone speaking up to help, and they also joined the ranks of dissuading the couple.
Leng Nuan ignored the others' words, and did not shake off the hand holding her. She spoke calmly, looked at the tall man in front of her with cold eyes, and whispered: "Are you sure you don't want to let go?"
This is bad! The vigilance he had developed over the years reminded him to let go quickly, but now that things have come to this, how can he give up! He gritted his teeth and said firmly: "No."
"Alas," Leng Nuan closed his eyes helplessly and sighed deeply. Well, since he is so sincere, then let him do as he wishes.
"Oh, Brother Shen, even if I'm gone, you still have Lingyue, Shuyuan, Chimiko, Christine, and Ivanov..."
The guests in the restaurant watched as the girl, who had a cold face just now, now had tears in her eyes and choked up as she said one name after another. Her previous kindness and righteousness instantly turned into disgust.
Bah, he looks like a decent guy, but he is actually a scumbag who is dating 5 women of different nationalities. His legs are so long, why doesn't he cross the Atlantic?
"They... No, didn't I break up with them a long time ago?" Listening to Leng Nuan counting the names of his ex-girlfriends and feeling the piercing gaze, Yun Shen subconsciously clarified himself. He and his ex-girlfriends broke up peacefully and they are still on good terms. He won't take the blame for being a scumbag!
"Even without them, we would not have been able to do this!" There was a sense of repression in the choked voice that seemed to explode at any moment.
Why?! The audience, already full of curiosity, shifted their gaze from the big boy to the petite girl.
"Because we are half siblings, we have the same father but different mothers. I just regret that we are not destined to be together in this life!" After saying that, the girl forcefully shook off the hand that was holding her, covered her mouth and ran out!
At this moment, the whole place was dead silent. No matter whether someone was holding a coffee cup, applying eyeliner, wiping lips, or chewing dinner, everyone was as if the pause button was pressed and did not move.
Yun Shen was the first to react, looking around stiffly. No one knew if he was angry or shy, but he rushed out with a red face.
After the two strangers left, the restaurant started to become lively again. Although they felt sorry for the young man, they still allowed them to gossip immorally.
Worth it! It's really worth it! This cup of coffee tonight is really worth it! A living forbidden love! This is what they can watch for more than 20 yuan!
Xu Zhe, who was sitting in a corner and came out to take a breath, had his hands holding the coffee cup trembling slightly and was worried about the future of the company.
The No.1 and No.2 in the organization are like this in private. Is it too late for him to consider changing jobs now? !
"Wait, your last name is Xue?" Leng Nuan stopped on the way back to the station, thinking that Yun Shen would not come to see her again in the short term. She suddenly thought of the key words in the other party's words.
"No wonder the hero hasn't shown up in such a long time. It turns out he's never been in the country."
In the dark and cold weather, people always ignore the accuracy of time. Qin Shuangjiang had been home for less than 5 minutes when he heard a sound coming from the entrance.
She looked at Leng Nuan who was sitting at the door changing her shoes. She was about to ask why he came back so late, but suddenly she remembered that it was not even 10 o'clock. So she changed the subject and said, "You're back."
Leng Nuan didn't say anything, but just smiled back at her, then looked at the woman in front of her who was wearing a professional suit.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Qin Shuang lowered his head and looked at his clothes. He asked curiously.
"No, it suits you very well. I just suddenly feel that being a regular office worker seems to be pretty good."
"Do you want to come to work in the company?" Qin Shuangjiang didn't think much about the sudden mention of this topic. She just thought that Leng Nuan was just in a whim, because from Leng Nuan's work experience, it was rare for her to stay in a job for a long time.
"Which department are you more interested in? I'll arrange it for you tomorrow." Qin Shuangjiang's idea was to let the other party parachute directly into the management level. After all, Leng Nuan would be one of the company's directors in the future, and he should understand these things. There was no need to work hard at the bottom level, and he didn't want to have a bad side that people could use as a handle.
"Hmm..." Leng Nuan thought for a moment. "I don't have much experience in this area."
Seeing that Leng Nuan really didn't know how to choose, Qin Shuangjiang suggested: "If there is no department or position you want. I can also reorganize a department for you."
"Then I'll start as your assistant."
Finally, the two of them had a tacit understanding and spoke in unison.
"Okay, it's decided. Then tomorrow, no, tomorrow is the weekend, so see you on Monday, boss~" Leng Nuan winked at her playfully, and was very satisfied with the position she found which was neither conspicuous nor close to the core.
Qin Shuangjiang watched the person go up the stairs, and only reacted after he disappeared from sight.
Assistant? What kind of assistant?
No, wouldn't she have to stay with Leng Nuan from morning till night every day? Although their relationship was stable and improving, she was not yet mentally prepared to be with him day and night!
